Cozy cabin, comfortable for a family with grown children
Pictures are completely accurate, the house is cozy, quaint and comfortable! Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need (bring coffee, there is no starter). The neighborhood is lovely and walking distance to Kicking Horse Resort, which has lots of great activities - we enjoyed mountain biking, the bear refuge, and hiking to Terminator Peak. Loved the hot tub. Bring bug spray for mosquitos. So grateful to have been able to stay in such a nice place!

Nice Comfortable Spot
We enjoyed the house. Highlights were being on the hill, the wood fire place natural wood construction and open feel. 3 bedrooms with 3 couples worked out well. We agreed that we wouldn’t recommend a 4th couple. However, you could easily throw 6-10 kids into the mix and have lots of space for everyone.

Happy Week in the Snow
We were an extended family of 6 adults and 3 preschoolers. The house and locations worked very well for us and it was very well stocked with all supplies needed to enjoy the house and hot tub. We were lucky with the weather too! Thanks for a great week in the snow!

Great ski in/out cottage
The cottage was very comfortable for a family of 8. It was clean and well equipped. We loved the ski in ski out aspect as well as the hot tub at the end of the day. There is also a BBQ and a fireplace to truly make your ski trip memorable. The only negative comment is the sofa bed downstairs was not very comfortable but there were enough beds for us to get by. Overall, we had a great stay at this cabin and would recommend it.

Kicking Horse Ski Retreat
My friends and I go on a ski trip every year somewhere in BC. This year we booked at this cabin to ride Kicking Horse for a few days. Location is excellent and it fit 6 of us comfortably. Hot tub was great and appliances worked well. Only a few minor things things to consider if you are thinking about booking this cabin. 1) The TV in the living room is hilariously small. There is however a bigger TV in the basement that we used to watch movies at night. 2) All the beds were uncomfortable. We are a group of guys who feel like we can sleep anywhere, but a couple of us actually chose to sleep on the floor rather than the bed or pullout in the basement. 3) It was ~9 pm and a few of us were in the hot tub and a neighbour came out within minutes to scold us for being too loud. If it was later I would understand, but 9pm on a Friday night isn't too unreasonable to be outside with a group. Overall, we had a great time. If the cabin had more comfortable mattresses we would probably book again.

Lovely cabin getaway.
We had a great stay at this cabin. Beautiful location but cabs are hard to get so if you need to get into town and can’t drive this could be a problem in Golden. Fast communication with the host. Couple hiccups as there there were no extra sheet sets for the futon on the loft. Lots of blankets which made do but an extra set of sheets would benefit the extra bedding options! Also there was a dead bird found when we arrived on the porch that looked like it had been there quite a while. Something the cleaners must have missed it was no worries but a bit gruesome haha. Gabriel was great and solving any issues or concerns we had upon our stay. One note is the advertisement is very confusing in the number of guests allowed. We were a group of ladies having a reunion after Covid distancing us all. We were told after inquiring about the 10 of us booking that no more then 6 SINGLE adults were allowed. Bit awkward as I had to let the host know many of us were couples as many are gay. Found this rule confusing and possibly problematic for guests.l, luckily no one took offence but when I asked about clarifying the rule I was never met with an answer. Gabriel seemed to ignore the question both times I asked. Overall great weekend and would still recommend despite some issues. Thanks!
